Field and office instructions in stream gauging for the Hydrological Survey of Zambia
L. E. Bidwell
1971, Open-File Report 73-24
The importance of water to the basic needs of man is self- evident and needs no particular emphasis. The importance of water to a developing economy cannot be overemphasized. A few decades ago, hydrology was a division of hydraulic engineering and was a tool for project survey, plan, and design....

Suggested criteria for hydrologic design of storm-drainage facilities in the San Francisco Bay Region, California
Saul Edward Rantz
1971, Open-File Report 71-341
This report presents basic criteria, in the form of tables and graphs, for each of the four methods of hydrologic design most commonly used in the San Francisco Bay region--flood-frequency analysis, Rational Method, unit-hydrograph method, and runoff simulation by means of hydrologic basin modeling. The term "hydrologic design" as used...

Hydrologic data for Horseshoe Lake, Arkansas and vicinity
A. G. Lamonds
1971, Open-File Report 71-177
During the summer and fall, seepage and evaporation losses from Horseshoe Lake, an oxbow or an 'old river' lake adjacent to the Mississippi River, exceed inflow to the lake, and seasonal declines of 2.5-3.0 feet in the lake level are common. In exceptionally dry years, the minimum lake level has...

A preliminary evaluation of hydrologic conditions of the Lakeland Ridge area of Polk County, Florida
Alton F. Robertson
1971, Open-File Report 71-241
The Lakeland ridge are covers about 300 square miles in north-west Polk County. The rapid growth of this area has resulted in an increase in ground-water withdrawals such that in 1968 about 67.5 million gallons per day was pumped to satisfy the demands of municipal, irrigation and industrial users. Declines...
Geology, hydrology, and water quality of the Tracy-Dos Palos area, San Joaquin Valley, California
W. R. Hotchkiss, G. O. Balding
1971, Open-File Report 72-169
The Tracy-Dos Palos area includes about 1,800 square miles on the northwest side of the San Joaquin Valley. The Tulare Formation of Pliocene and Pleistocene age, terrace deposits of Pleistocene age, and alluvium and flood-basin deposits of Pleistocene and Holocene age constitute the fresh ground-water reservoir Pre-Tertiary and Tertiary sedimentary...
Hydrologic analysis of Mojave River Basin, California, using electric analog model
W. F. Hardt
1971, Open-File Report 72-157
The water needs of the Mojave River basin will increase because of population and industrial growth. The Mojave Water Agency is responsible for providing sufficient water of good quality for the full economic development of the area.

Hugh T. Mitten, William Ogilbee
1971, Report
Quantitative estimates of ground-water pumpage from the principal ground-water basins in California are necessary for future appraisal studies, for constructing hydrologic models, and for systematic planning of water use and conservation. Methods of estimating pumpage for this report are based on metered pumpages, on electric-power consumption and fuel consumption by...
